Adrienne Bailon: ‘The Real’ Star Calls It Off

Adrienne Bailon: ‘The Real’ Star Calls It Off, Adrienne Bailon revealed a bombshell to fans today. While taping an episode of her morning talk show The Real (airing today), the 31-year-old told the audience that she and longtime love and fiancé Lenny Santiago have called off their engagement.

In a clip obtained by E! News, Bailon begins by telling the crowd that she wanted to address the numerous speculation she gets on social media surrounding her naked ring finger, but chose to wait because she didn’t want to put a damper on the show’s second season kickoff.

However, she keeps it real (obvs), so she set the record straight on the status of her engagement.

“Through the summer, I went on my little Eat Pray Love journey and it was a time for me to come to terms with my own truth and my honesty and I am not engaged anymore, and we’re in a good place,” she admitted.

“It’s not an ‘aw’ thing, I promise you. We’re gonna be great friends forever and I think it was a hard decision to make when you’re with somebody for such a long time. I think as women, we have a hard time with change. It was hard for me. But you have to be true to yourself. You have to be honest with yourself. And I think having time on my own gave me that opportunity. I’m so grateful to have girls who love and support me, and we’re gonna be OK.”

While there wasn’t any obvious signs of trouble on the star’s social media, certain posts may have dropped hints (especially with the absence of a certain sparkler on that finger).

Nearly a month ago, Adrienne kept fans posted (literally) on a tropical getaway to Honduras that she took with gal pal Julissa Bermuda, which she explained was the last stop on her “Eat Pray Love” summer.
